You'll love it. It's just one of those goofy movies that everyone enjoys and can relate to.

I've seen it two weeks ago I guess and I liked this movie...
The entire movie I was like, they'll hook up together, they so will but when you continue to watch it and see how Ronald behaves, you begin to wonder if he will end up with the girl he paid to go out with him... It's a really fun movie if you ask me, and Patrick looks funny and cute

Those caps crack me up. His hair is great.

Beatriz · 07-31-2006, 03:58 PM

Ok, I know that in a couple of days from now, I'll be known as the opening posts freaky

but I just love opening posts that look good

So... could you Lis add a brief description and a couple of caps of the movie to the opening post?

I can search for the description, and about the caps, we can use Karen's if she doesn't mind

I got a few ones myself as well

Oh, forgot to say that I love thi smovie

It was the first Patrick movie I ever saw, loooong, long ago

Oh, yeah, totally. I was going to do that with the movie threads I started, anyway.

I like cool intro posts as well.

**shinystar** · 07-31-2006, 04:25 PM

I've got 18 caps from this movie, feel free to use them...
and I'm a fan of opening posts as well... For some reason it gives me a more welcoming feeling when a new thread opens

A bit too much hair gel for my taste

Indeed. When I saw that I was like,

And, the first pic... doesn't his shirt say like, "You are here" Or something?

**shinystar** · 07-31-2006, 04:40 PM

I think his shirt says something like that yeah, can't really see it that clear...

grease was the first thing that came to my mind as well Bea

thegreenlight · 07-31-2006, 04:46 PM

That first cap... I love when she rips off his sleeves. And she keep calling him Donald. He's like, "One more thing, my name's Ronald, not Donald."

**shinystar** · 07-31-2006, 04:49 PM

the donald thing was cute yes, especially when he at the end of the movie he called her and said his name was Donald... So cute!

the ripping of his sleeves was cute as well, same goes for her sharing her poetry with him

Aw, yes. I felt bad for him when she wouldn't accept his calls.

I think the sharing of the poetry was cute, but I didn't like the actual poetry, which he read aloud. I thought it was cheesy.
